Hordion 2 Pcs 15" Conducting Baton Music Conductor Baton Orchestra Baton with Pear Shaped ABS Handle, Black

I love these batons! For me, they're the perfect length. Forget the myth that batons should balance just above the handle—I prefer a little extra tip weight, which these have. And they're so light that balance isn't an issue. Some batons arrive with rough fiberglass shaft that requires minimal sanding with fine sandpaper. I prefer their hard rubber handle to more expensive wood handles.

Real nice quality fiberglass clean smooth and durable.One of this quality is usually $20.00 getting 2 for under $8 bucks is a fantastic deal!

My Mollard baton disappeared and I needed a quick replacement and found these. They are decent and being made of fiberglass they should be pretty durable plus their price from this vendor is very reasonable. However, due to the fiberglass construction they are relatively heavy and the balance is not great, thus the four star rating. If you are a school band director who goes through batons from beating them on your conductor's stand in frustration these will be fine. Maestros should look elsewhere.

Dual wielded these bad boys while conducting the orchestra for “Spaceballs the Opera” got it done in half the time.

Good

Just what I needed.

The baton looks fine at first glance, but holding it is very uncomfortable. The surface feels rough and almost painful, like tiny splinters or sharp fibers poking into the skin. I’m not sure what kind of material was used, but it’s definitely not smooth or user-friendly. If you plan to use it regularly, especially for long periods, this might be a problem.
